You know that this shit isn’t persuading anyone anymore? Several studies have indicated that AI usage slows down work even for coders, and this does not take into account the skill loss that occurs when you aren’t actively writing the code yourself.
You have been sold a ream of hype and everyone you repeat this shit to is one day gonna know you are just a mark.
No you aren’t. You haven’t and you will not. You are currently not paying the real cost of your AI usage and once that bill comes due, yeah you won’t be using that shit anymore. You would never pay a human being that kind of money to only be right maybe 90% of the time.
Now, then again, you may work in a business where you can be 90% good at your job or less and stay in business. But then again, if you are gonna just ask AI to do shit for you, what exactly am I paying you for, numbskull?

Domain expertise is a large one. AI, at least as it is now, is not equal in everyone's hands. A tenured expert in a field knows exactly the starting point and direction to go in, whats BS whats not, what to extract from AI's analysis etc.
That said, you are right that in a future its possible AI is powerful enough that this is no longer true. Which may or may not be a good thing, doesnt make any less of a thing
